Bill Campbell, well known for his portrayal of Delbert Mosley in the HBO alien adventure “Out There” (1995), plays the witless hero, based on the comic book by Dave Stevens, in this flight of fancy accompanied by a well-seasoned and recognizable entourage.
It is the 1930's. Pilot Cliff Secord (Bill Campbell) and his mechanic partner Peevy (Alan Arkin) want to fly in the nationals. Little did they know that they would cross paths with the number three box office star Neville Sinclair (Timothy Dalton), who, for some nefarious reason, wants to pilfer a (backpack) rocket designed by Howard Hughes (Terry O'Quinn).
Well, it seems that Cliff got his hands on the rocket, but Neville, knowing that Cliff has it, has his hands on Cliff's girl, Jenny Blake (Jennifer Connelly). So, will they make a trade, or is there something greater at stake?
